Who can pay into my child's Junior ISA?

Anyone can pay money into a Junior ISA once it’s open – up to the £4,368 annual limit. Here’s how.

If you're the Junior ISA's registered contact (the person responsible for managing the account), just log in to the account and click on ‘Single payment’. From this screen you can also create a link which you can email to relatives or friends, letting them pay into the Junior ISA. They’ll need to confirm the child’s surname and date of birth to make the payment.

While anyone can pay into a Junior ISA, only a parent or legal guardian of the child can open or manage the account on their behalf.

The value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you originally invested.
